Coastal Cabana - 1 Block to beach with sound view
We really enjoyed our time at Grant and Laura’s place! They’ve truly thought of everything to make their guests feel at home. The place is spacious, beautifully decorated and spotless. Everything was perfect! The location was amazing, just a quick walk to the beach and restaurants. They have beach chairs and towels ready for use. Plenty of other towels, trash bags and quality pillows in all bedrooms which we appreciated. We use Airbnbs often and our family agrees this house goes to the top of our list. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much for sharing your gem of a place with us. We really wish we could have made this a longer trip.

Oceanfront Condo-1A-Pet Friendly! Linens Provided!
Amanda was a great hostess. She was very communicative and checked in on us. The beach access was a great bonus to this rental.

Ocean Breeze, Beautiful Ocean Front Townhome
We always love staying here. The condo is so warm and cozy. Rob is a fantastic host. The views are amazing and the location perfect. We can’t wait to return yet again.

Low Tide at CB - 75 steps to Beach Access
Beautiful house , nice location from the beach , everything looked exactly like the pictures , host was very responsive.

5-Minute Walk to Beach & Boardwalk, Private Porch!
We loved our stay! Great location, easy check in and out, and very clean place. Would definitely recommend!

Mermaid Retreat* Private Pool* Pet Friendly
Great location, and a great time. Backyard with pool is perfect with plenty of room for activities and entertaining. You can walk to the beach and restaurants within minutes.

Point Break Historic Beach Cottage
Location is perfect— anything you could want, including the beach and great bars and restaurants, are within walking distance. Beach isn’t too crowded at that beach access, at least this time of year. Shelly is responsive and helpful! Love the interior— simple, cozy, basic.

Surf4life Oceanfront Beach Cottage
Our family had a fabulous time here! We loved sitting on the porch with an ocean view, being steps away from the beach and being right in town close to restaurants and activities. Michael was a great host, friendly and responsive! The place was pristine and well set up to accommodate our family of four. It felt like home during our time here! We would definitely recommend for anyone coming to Carolina beach!

Surf Vibes! - Oceanfront condo w/ heated pool
Great relaxing retreat!! The oceanfront porch was priceless. We spent so much time out there. The owners were so responsive and flexible. We had two 18 year olds who had fun playing basketball, hanging out on the beach and touring around. We hope to go back soon.

Ocean Front, Top Floor Unit- Carolina Beach
Beautiful condo. The view from the balcony was absolutely stunning. Mike was so helpful with any questions we had. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Oceanfront Coastal Condo w/ Pool
The CONDO was as described and beautiful in every way. The host Payton was very helpful and had great communication hope to visit again soon!

*Renovated* Top Floor Oceanfront Condo w/ Pool
My two friends and I stayed at Nicholas’ place for a wedding in Carolina Beach. The condo was in the perfect location, with ~1.2 miles away from the strip of restaurants, bars, etc. the place was super and clean and had so many amenities readily available. Check in was a breeze, the stay was a blast and the check out was easy. Highly recommend going for a morning sunrise walk, visiting the Fat Pelican and stopping at the local vegetable and fruit stand. The one slight down fall is the amount of stairs when going up to the condo, especially if you are lugging around an oversized suitcase or a lot of groceries; however, the view makes up for the stairs. Thank you Nicholas for an impeccable stay; I will be returning!

Carolina's Perfection: Private Pool And Hot Tub
Great house, great stay, great host. It was the perfect place for my friends & I to unwind. Proximity to the beach and the boardwalk was really nice. We were able to rent bikes throughout our stay & tour the neighborhood. The kitchen was beautiful and the house came with cookware needed for our crab boil. But the rooftop is really the star of the show. The 360 view is amazing with the beach on one side and the marina on the other. Thank you Ramith for hosting us! We have to come back!

Fully Renovated Beautiful Oceanfront 2 BR Condo
My friend and I had a great stay in this condo! It's exactly like the pictures and was very peaceful. It's pretty close to the Boardwalk and other restaurants, but not too close to be in all of the congestion and hustle and bustle of CB. Stephen was wonderful and very responsive. I would recommend this place to everyone and would stay here again!

Oceanfront! - Walk to Ft Fisher - Cable
Great quiet place to stay!! We will definitely be staying @ Skipper’s place again, when we visit NC ❤️

"Foot Prints in The Sand" Oceanfront, 3BR & Pool
The location is ideal if you are looking for beachfront with a view of the ocean and also a place where you can walk to the boardwalk and downtown area easily. I would stay here again.

Beachhouse-Private Dock & Boatslip
We stayed at Ric and Chelsea’s place for a week and everything was great! House was wonderful and exactly what our family needed. Lots of things to do at the house and in a very walkable location. Ric was very communicative. All around great stay.

The House of Kai, 1 Block From The Beach
This is our third year at the House of Kai, we love this spot! Perfect for a beach trip with two young kids. There is so much to do - the boardwalk, Sunny Days BBQ with oceanfront views, Good Hops Brewery, renting bikes from Tong Silvani and biking to the State park, the boardwalk and the Brewery, the Sandspur, Fort Fisher for the aquarium and beach hikes, taking the ferry to and from Southport, and a quick drive to Wilmington for a day playing at the Children's Museum and walking along the river walk. Just the best!

Close Enough WB
Great place to stay. Loved the location and reasonably priced!

Bowfin Ocean Views, Golf Cart and Pets Welcome!
The hosts for this house were amazing! We needed a special accommodation and they made sure to call and walk us through the setup. Any questions were quickly answered and the house was stocked with some great staples. Beautiful home perfect for our family!

Boardwalk Beauty - 3 Blocks to Beach - Hot Tub
My friend and I took a mother’s & daughters trip with our daughters and it did not disappoint! We would stay here again :) super cute place and the beds were comfy!!

Paradise Found Beachfront Haven
Loved Dawn’s place! The view is absolutely breathtaking! That was my favorite part of walking in, going to sleep, and waking up. The view made me feel like “Okay now this is a vacation”! Dawn was so friendly and responsive! Ready to lend a hand if needed. Will definitely keep this on my list of favorites.

Spacious Ocean Front House
The place was great for our family of 6. Every person had a bath towel and one wash cloth. The decks were great to sit outside for the sunrise! The kitchen amenities aren’t specifically listed, but they are enough if you want to do a bit of cooking. Bring your own beach towels - 2 are provided. We loved how quiet this place was down on the sound end of the island. It is a clean and cute place! We’d definitely come here again, though we were a bit put off that there are three hosts listed and no one responded to the two messages with questions that we sent before and during our stay.

Beachfront Bliss- 2 BDR- 2 Bath (sleeps 6)
We had to be last minute because of the need to visit a close family member nearby. We wanted the oceanfront and we were thankful to see that this condo was available. It was nice, comfortable, well equipped with everything, even coffee filters, plenty of TP and paper towels. I have to put an injured foot up a couple times a day and I thought I saw 3 ottomans in the photo but there was one nice size one and one that was too low to the floor, but the large one was good. The little oceanfront balcony had a great setup, with two higher up Adirondacks and two rocking chairs, each with a small table in between, which was perfect. Location was great and we loved being able to walk to the North End Mini Mart and Cafe, which was only about a 4-minute walk. Best breakfast sandwiches!! Beds were very comfortable!
